It is confusing for sure and the more you learn about Parkers, the more you realize is still out there to learn

Chuck, your job is secure!!

It should be mentioned that the "Grade" numbers, 0 to 9, were factory internal use and never appeared in catalogs or advertising.

Generally the Brothers P didn't stamp the number 0 or 1 on the guns. We see 2 and higher stamped on the watertable of the guns --

and 3 and higher on both the watertable and the barrel flats --

So how does this equate into finding a value for this gun. I am trying to decide if it’s worth restoring or just keep as is and be happy I have a Parker.
